In our first podcast episode in English we talk to Katya
Kempkens. Katya studied Software Engineering at Stanford
University and has worked in various Software Engineering
positions in the tech industry in the USA and
Germany.
In this podcast episode Katya tells how she discovered her
interest in computer science even though she was never “one of
those kids who started programming when they were ten years old”.
We speak about differences between working in the USA and Germany
as well as about Katya’s current Engineering Manager position.
Katya talks about her beginnings as a people manager and what
advice she would give to engineers who are uncertain whether to
pursue a technical expert career or move into a management
role.
We speak about unconscious bias and which unexpected findings
Katya had after taking the Harvard Implicit Association Test.
Katya emphasizes the importance of being aware of your
unconscious biases and acting against them. She gives us insights
into which actions she takes as a people leader in order to act
against unconscious bias within her team.
It’s an authentic and open discussion in which Katya shares her
years of experience in the tech industry with us and gives food
for thought on how to tackle unconscious bias.
